"Memories of Uncle Bud"

"Back when I was little, every weekend, the folks would meet in Van Alstyne, and walk around the square (downtown) talking to everyone. Sometimes we'd see a movie at the Aztec Theater. Uncle Bud would take his horse, and hitch it to the post. I remember talking to him, just chattering away. I could have been talking to a fence post because that man never talked back." - Marilyn Hix Marks
